Re: Coronavirus update

I'm very sorry to hear that your wife isn't well but in no world are flowers are an essential item and if you're planning on driving 3 miles to a petrol station just to get some because you couldn't get any from the supermarket then you're a huge part of the problem

Absolutely. Much easier to pop to the nearest graveyard where there are loads for free.

I didn't, but I hope you take the point.

And by the way flowers can be a very essential item. There has been a lot of press about the mental health of people in this pandemic, and flowers can be as therapeutic for some people as medicine. It's all about recognition and caring.

Indeed, but they can be delivered, often within a day's notice.

I enjoy a libation from time to time. During the first lockdown I ordered in a few supplies online simply to prevent me going out of the house to buy them. It was more expensive, sure, but it prevented me making relatively unnecessary trips out of the house. In fact, a mate of mine ordered a few ciders from a particular maker, so we ended up taking it in turns to order half a dozen bottles from a different place some weeks.

I was in Tesco on Excelsior Road today to pick up a prescription for my daughter. Flowers were on sale there if you're looking to pick some up. Sorry to hear about your wife.

I don't think they can be delivered currently because florists are closed in this lockdown

Can get next day delivery to my postcode in Cardiff on the Interflora website.

I'd recommend Waitrose florists though even though you might have to wait a few days longer. I find them to be better quality.

You've got two online florists or Tesco as options now

Re: Coronavirus update

Although the vaccine is planned to be available for frontline NHS staff in December it will take many months before the population as a whole will be inoculated. And of course there will be many refusniks. The real spike will occur when students return home for Christmas.

Don’t fear operation moonbeam or whatever it’s called will be in full swing by then, bo bo said a few weeeks ago. 10 million tests a day, plenty for the students to have a go, wait 20 mins, then pop off home to mummy and daddy’s all clear. Hoorah for the Tories.....

Young people, particularly those from deprived backgrounds, have had their earnings and job prospects hit hardest by the coronavirus pandemic, adding to fears for the long-term impact on their futures.

So then you met up to share out the bottles you took it in turns to buy on line so you didn't have to come into contact with people? Hmmmmmmm
